To help celebrate World Refugee Day, the City of Windsor is launching a new app.

MyNewCity is designed to help newcomers to the Windsor-Essex region search for services and agencies to help them with their transition. Entries can be searched by agency or service address, agency name, type, street name, city or town or keyword.

The internationally recognizable symbols used on the map make it easy to find a service regardless of the user’s primary language, and with just a few steps they can even print a map to guide their way across town.

The app can be accessed on any computer or device, anytime, and anywhere, using the internet directly or via WiFi.
